The harvest of torvism and fool tnatcn, rovrn by the traitor press of the North, unde r the cloak of Democracy, is now j timing in different jarls of the country, and producing its deadly fruits, in a larger quantity than we ever supposed tl e free soil of the North would field. Tie Indianapoln Journnl, gives an account of a party wtctitg butternut emblems, riding into the town of Danville, Hendricks county, last week, to hear a peech from Voorhees. A difficulty aiote between one of the band and a Ubion man, which ended by the display of weapons on both sides and, the Cling of rettral shots the K. G. C. was wounded. , Friends on both tides "went in," and pistols were freely and fatally used and some four or five persons were wounded, most of whom were Union men. The K. G. C.'s were all armed and prepared for a fight, while their opponents were not only not armed but had no knowledge of such an invasion of their town being cor. templated. Tho horr.e guards from Car-, tersbure and Plaiofiehl assembled and reached for the K O. (J.'s, but tl.ey had vanished. Qi-ceral Carrington made preparations to ecnd a body of troaps to Danville to tupprets the liot; but the Home Guard proved tflt ctual. A liitle son of Mr. Wi throw, a lawyer of Dar.tille, and formerly a Senator from that county, was shot in the abdomen, while walking along the street, nenr the scene of this riot ; it was supposed the wound would prove fatal. On the fame day (Saturday the ISih) a still more atrocious attack was made bv members of the K. O. C. on Union men in Brown county. The following account of it is from one of the most prominent and estimable citisens of Martinsville : " There was a meeting of Union men in Brown county to-day, about thirteen miles from this place. A number of citizens from here, were by invitation present, and among them Captain A. D. Cunniog of the 70th Indiana and Sergeants T. S. Nutter and Daniels of the squad of Cavalry sent down here a few days since, to arrest deserters. The Union men were preurnted from holding their meeting at the place appointed by Lewis Prosser Esq , the law and political partner of James 8. Hester, Esq , and other supposed K. O. C.'a of that county, among them Mr. Snyder, who will be delivered to jou by the bearer. After another place had been selected for the meeting, .and Capt. Cunning had commenced speaking, Froser and Snyder came to the ground and Proser, in the presence and hearing of the two Sergeants, said, "he would "bet a dollar he would kill two of them before night." Prosser had a rifle in.hi-t hand, and so had Soyder. Sergeant Daniels be ing near, approached l'rosser and tsked, "who are you goit.g to shoot, sir," or 'what do you mean, sir. Prosser attempted to shoot Daniels with the rirlo, Daniels wrenched the rifle from Prosser, when Prosser drew a revolver and shot Daniels through the heart, and at the instant of firing, called out to Snyder, ''shoot the other d-m-d ton of a b-b,M meaning Serg't Nutter; but missed him. Capt. Cunning shot Prosser, wounding him in toe leg, and it is supposed f broke it or fractured the bones, and arrest- j ed Snyder. Daniels was of course instantly killed, and the meeting broken up." j Snyder was taken to Indianapolis on the m w a . . ! jytn, and loagea in jail, to await a trial Ijr his deadly offence. Prosser will be arrested and taken there also if able to be moved. ! T7a ail m mimhitr n f triA I.aeriuTatm-A from ' Brown county, some years afro, and has .

On Monday, the 13th of this month, the wife f Calvin Burch, a resident of Randolph county, died from what is supposed to be the effect of poison, adminiateied by ber husband.

General activity now prevails in General Dix'8 Department. The rebels having reorcupied Williamsburg and Fort Magruder, a force will be dispatched soon to dielodga them. The inhabitants have been warned to leave, by Gen. Keys. In their recent attack upon our troops near Suffolk, the rebels were completely repulsed. Gen. Dix reports as follows: Fortress Mox&oe, April 19. "To Major- General llalleck: " I deem it due to the forces at Suffolk to notice b tit-fly their gallant conduct for the last six days. On Tuesday General Peck's wing was attacked, and the enemy's advance wos gallantly met by Gen. Foster's light troops. The former were driven back to their line of pickets. Anderson's division whs engaged at the same time on the water front with our gtibboats and batteries, and suffered materially. Ou Wednesday a rebel batterv cf 20pounder rifiUd guns was silenced effectually, and an attack on the Smith Brigs and an armed Quartermasters' boat was repulsed. The storming of the enemy's battery near the west branch of the Nansemond, by Gen. Esily and tbe gunboats, under Lieut. Lawson of the navy, and the capture of eix guns and 200 prisoners, closes the operations of the 6 dsys against the enemy's large force very Hatifcf'actorially. Jnu. Dix, Maj.-Gen. Gen. Foster has been relieved at Washington, N. C. On the 13th the steamer Escort, with a volunteer ciew from the 5th , Rhode Island, run the blockade, a line of unremitting fire, six miles in length. They were welcomed as deliverers alone can be; afoot to drive the rebels away Nothing further from Charleston. Admiral Dupont is much blamed by many for retiring from the contest before Charleston. Others, well informed, say be acted very wisely. Gen. Hunter has sent a part ef his troops to the relief of Gen, Foster, Fortress Monroe, April 21. A steamer arrived this evening from Newbern, 19th, nJ reports that General Foster left there j with a brigade, yesterday, for Washington, KT 3 ' ' the surrender of the mails. Secretary Seward, it is reported, was in favor of giving them up, while Secretary Welles insisted that the matter should be referred to the Court. The latter course was adopted, with w hat result has already been stated. Nashville, April.22. An order appears in the morning papers which will be enforced. Citizens must lake the oath or go South in ten days. General Mitchell intends to ride the city of Secessionists. Six hundred took the oath with a heavy bond, including fifty-one ladies to-day. In a few days six rebels will be sent to Al ton jail, thirty through the lines by way of icksburg, forty torth of the Ohio river to be treated as spies if they return The expedition from Muofordsvil'e to the Cumberland river was an affair of great importance and splendid results. At Celina, in Jackson county, Tenn . near the Kentucky line, and seventy-two miles by river above Nashville, large quantities of corn and other stores, with a great number of boa:?, which were being used by the rebels in transporting supplies, were found and destroyed. It was a severe blow to the enemy. The Union loss was trifling. The national forces are gettiog accustomed lo the expeditionary business, and in their performances are eclipsing the rebels, who for a time monopolized that mode of warfare. Military movements, which bid fair to reach important results, have recently taken place in St. Mary's Parish, in the extreme south of Louisiana. The Atchafalaya river nere empties into tbe Uulf, and tbe numerous bayous in the vicinity had for months past been tbe resort of blockade runners and smugglers. Accordingly, some time since General Weitxel was dispatched thither, and made many valuable captures. He has since returned a second time. On his arrival be found the rebels better prepared to receive him, and their forces were too large for him to assume the offensive. Scanty details of subsequent operations have been published, but it appears that Weitsel was re-enforced. General Banks himself taking the field at the bead of Grover's. Emory's and Weitsel's corps. . Early ie the present

month Weitzel crossed Berwick's Bay from' the Union lendesvous at Brashear City, aad advanced westward to Patterson ville, font miles up the Bayou Teche, which empties into the Atcha'alaya from the northwest The rebels occupied Centreville, a few miles northwest of Wci'zei, as their headquarters. Weitrel was cow reinforced by tmorj'a division. In tbe meantime, Grover's forces embarked at Brashear City and proceeded into Grand Lake to Indian Bend, a point on the Bayou Tece, northwest f Centreville. The rebels were thus plac-d between two fires, G rover being above and Wei'.xcl and F.ruery below them. Our latest advices are, that they had evacuated the place, leaving their guns acd ammunition behind them, but it was believed they could not escape. Their force ia said to number 8.rOO. It is thought also that tbe gunboat Diana, whose capture was recently described in our columns, will also be retaken, as the U. S. steamer Clifton, at last accounts, was within a few miles of her, having removed tbe obstructions which the rebels had placed in the channel of the river. The raai Queen of the West, which the rebel captors had brought down to this patt of the country, through tbe Atchafalaya, was recaptured at Grand Lake on the morning of the 14th. All her officers and crew, 90 in nurr.ber, were taken to Berwick's Bay. Mkwphis, April 23. Six more transports have succeeded in

running the blockade. The casualties are not known. Two flatboats, capable of carry ing one thousand men each, have been taken down the Duckport canal. Transports now run by Warrenton quietly, the batteries being silenced Gen.

This is a singular fact; and it is termination of this regiment to see treason equally true that wherever you find an of-' punished, so cften shown in the face of the

fice-holder under Buchanan, during his ad ministration, there also will be found a supporter of the rebellion to-day. There may be some exceptions to this latter remark; for there were a few who received appointments under that regime, who were the devoted fiiends to the gallant Douglas, but who, beirg talented and useful men, were attempted to be oought over to oppose the Little Giant how far the bribes were successful. we cannot now tell; but this we do know, that the 'majestic, brave and tall' Elder of the Jtffvrsonian, was one of those who were bought up, and who did not hesitate, to cover up his tracks by a sham sale of his es. tablishment, so that he might still cling to the Richmond Post effice ! He did everything that he possibly could do, to aid the de'eat of Douglas in this State met, time fter time, with those he now terms "Abolitionists," and bis patron-saint, Jesse D. Bright, in order to asceitain "if anything more could be done" to secure the Little Giant'a defeat, and now, this same individual who is claimed to be "dignified in hon. ors, pride," ia ranged in the ranks of the copperheads, and supporting the rebellion by using all his influence in favor of his "soulbrrn brethren," by denouncing every measure instituted by the Government to conquer the rebels and restore the Union. 3T" Does it eyer occur" to the "injured Elder' that there can be no comparison between tbe war with Mexico and the present war? between a foriegn war and a domestic insurrection, or civil war! While the former might be condemned and denounced, and its policy questioned, without detriment to the Government, or its stability, by the jnost ardent lover of his country and its institutions, without the least taint of treason attaching to him, the reverse is the case when a crisis like the present occurs. "When our country is plunged into a war with the avowed purpose of disintegrating it destroying the Union erecting a separate ' Confederacy "-we bold that no one but a tory, more vile'and loathsome than those who lived during the revolutionary struggle. would oppose the Government in its efforts to subdue and punish the traitors thus t-n gaged, by every means in its power. In a struggle for the maintenance of the Union, every attempt to throw obstacles in the way of i's success, is nothing short of rank disloyalty, and every press thus engaged should be promptly stopped by the Government, and its editor suspended also for the crime. We cannot look nnon the nast and ntecpr.t efforts of the Jffftrsonlan editor.

A Military Review. Correal oavirtiee of the Indianapolis Jonro!. A&mt of th Potomac.) April 9tb, 1863. J MxasRs. Editors. I have just returned from the review, by tbe President, of the 1st Army Corps, c mmanded by Major General John P. Reynolds. The usual -pomp and circumstance" of such occasions was not wanting to day. The Commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy, who ia conducting this nation through the great crUis of its political and military carreer, the Commander of the Army of the Potomac, who is trusted by the officers and men of this Army as entirely as ever any leader was trusted by his army; tbe Commander of this Corps, who has borne himself with the gallantry and discretion of the excellent officer through many a severe march, and many a hard fought battla; and a multitude of other officers not cf this Corps, bearing stars, eagles leaves and bars on their shoulders, were present, and would, as hey were congregated wi h the President, Generals Hooker and Reynolds in the midst, have been the attraction of the day, if they had not been in the presence of the veteran soldiers of the Republic, who march and fight to the music of the Union in this Corps. Bnt here were soldiers who bad fought twice at Bull Run here were heroes from the Peninsula, from Western Virginia, and Eastern Virginia, and from the valley of the

Shenandoah, and here was a Regiment, (of our own State) that bad fought tbe public enemy on twenty seven successive days. The corps reviewed, and not the reviewing officer and his brilliant cortege, constituted the attraction of the occasion. An officer from Indiana in the midst of the crowd in the rear of the President w3uld have had just occasion for pride as the two regiments ifrom our S 7th fa rt-gi tate in this corps pa-sea oy. i ne iment that will not be content to .leave the service until the last vestige cf armed rebellion is crushed beneath the heel of military power.) is in the brigade commanded by Gen. Lysander Cutler, late Colonel of the 6th Wisconsin, a gallant soldier :n iof whom it is his due to say that he does : enemy, was to any seen iu iucir uu beard in their steady tramp. They may not be as well dressed as some other regiments, but their comrades on many battle-fields will not forget their deeds, and the enemy will remember them as long as that enemy has an existence. The last brigade to pass in review was the "Iron Brigade," commanded by Gen. Sol. Meredith, (Long Sol. of Wayne, who is the only General in this army from our State.) Thia brigade contains the 19th Ind., the 2d. 6th, 7th Wisconsin, and the ?4th Michigan Regiment. The 19tb, 2d, 6th and 7ih have been together in this brigade for more than twenty months first under comnrand of Geueral King, and afterwards Generals Gibbon and Meredith. The 24th Michigan is a new regiment lately added to our brigade. The four first regiments are in a state of efficiency not equalled by any brigade in the service, and long service and hard fighting together, added to the judicious administration of the inferior affairs of the brigade, has occasioned a community of feeling between these regiment' of the most generous character, and made them as one, and their history, when written, will inseparably connect the names of Wisconsin and Indiana. The 24th Michigan, though it has seen less service than the others, is rapidly approaching that state officiency which characterises them and they will need to look to their laurels. There is a solidity of appearence and steadiness of roomement about this brigade that says distinctly, "get out of our way unless you wish to get hurt." as the brigade passed, a murmur of approval ran through the crowd around the President and the waving handkerchiefs of Mrs. Lincoln and other ladies told of their admiration. More and warmer enconiums were bestowed on this than any other brigade on tte review to-day. Gen. Meredith may well be proud of his 'command and of his position in this army. His position has been won against some opposition at home and in Washington, by continuous and unflinching service in the field. The Brigade is excellently well ofh cered from General to Corporal, acd all its affairs are administered promptly and according to regulation. To be able to pre 6ent his brigade before the President, the Commander of the Army and Commander of tbe Corps in such a state of efficiency as to make experienced officers say, "there is a brigade that can he relied upon in the criiical moment of a hard fought battle." is sufficient occasion of a laudable pride on the part of Gen Meredith. The administration of the affairs of this army is thorough and excellent. Of General Hooker it is enough to say that he cares for his army and all its interests. And the army reeognize the directing mind and resttect and admire him. H trusts his men and they in return trust him, waiting patiently, cheerfully, for the order to move, believing that " Fighting Jow " wi'l issue that order at the right time. The discipline and high tone prevailing in this army at this lime has never been equaled on this continent. Inoiaha. In addition to the above we find the fullowing account of the review in the Cincin nu 01 APru 'ln- opeaain Gen. Meredith's Brigade, the correspond f ajs - When the 4th brigade of the 1st divis-j 1 of the corps, 'the Iron Brigalts" as it is: neiimes called, marched up. there was a! ion somei universal manifestation of admiration and applause evinced by the waving of bvodkercbiefs by a number of ladies present, and many expreskna of approbation by the officers. The prond, elastic, but firm military tread, the eiact and uniform movement, as if every company and every regiment were moved by one impulse, aod inspirited by one soul. demonstrated tbat these men had the spirit. ell as the form, of tbe good and true I soldier, This, remarked Gen. Hooker, f to the President, "is tbe famous 4:h bn ade " Yes," rejoined the President, "it is commanded by the only Quaker Genera I have in the army," (General Meredith be t t:..l j ..: n ..v t leg uy Uli idu csrij eusiuuu isici j This brigade was pronounced by manr offi cers, several Major-Generals, and by Gen.

These compliment must bars been highly gratifying to oar General, who has with moat indomitable energy and perseverence, brought his brigade to so high state of discipline, lie is deservedly popular with tba officers and men of his command the result cf his mild, yet firm bearing in the enforcement of discipline. He is ea-

The 4:h Bnga le is now composed of five regiments the 2d 6tb, 7ih Wisconsin, 19th Indiana, and 24' h Michigan, which was added to the brigade soon aUer the battle oi Antie'am. It is a fine, large regiment, commanded by Colonel Morrow, of Michigan, a most excellent officer and gentlemen. He and bis regiment have fairly won. by their galiantrv und courage, at the battle ol Fred ericksburg. a place in the Old Iron Brigade."-.. We have recently been muoh disturbed by a rumor 'that we miht lose our Brigade commander. It is confidently as- .... ... ... V serted that Gov. Morton has offered Gen Meredith the command of the Department of Indiana. There will be strong opposition in the brigade to the change if it is content plated. I think there are but few who would not oppose his removal. Tbe health and morale of ihe army is mc st excellent. Met lellan stock is at a discount. Hooker is at a high premium as high aa geld in Wall street. I desire to say to the friends of the soldiers who compose the 19th Indiana, that tbe health cf the regiment never was better. The men are in high spirits, and have entire I ly shaken off every thought and feeling of doubt and discouragement. They feel that God has committed a trust to their keeping They are determined in God's name to stand fast by their plighted honor, their heroic State, and great and glorious country. They will do this at all hazards, though death and an unmasked and uncotfined grave should be their end and resting place, as has been to many of their companions, who now rest on the bloody fields of Gainesville, Bull's Run, South Mountain. An tie tarn and Fredericksburg. The soldiers of the Army of the Potomac have fought well. If no results commensurate with their bravery hare followed, it is not their fault, as our thinned ranks and almost annihilated regiments do most surely attest.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, writing from "Ion Plantation," (where the 69th now are,) on the 1 lib, says that that Reg't left their quarters at Milliken's Bend on tha 31st nit. and marched to Richmond, twelve miles, crossing swamps and bayous by means of skiffs and temporary bridges; and after a short resistance, took the place tbe rebels fleeing for their lives, leaving their colors and wounded to the care of the Un 00 troops. This expedition consisted of the 69th, two companies of cavalry, with a section of mounted howitzers, all under the command of Col. T. W. Bennett. Two rebel officers and two soldiers, not knowing the place bad chang'd occupants, reported themselves to Col. Bennett, who gave them quarters in a brick building with barred windows. These prisoners brought in a large mail and several bundles of clothing, which tbey were taking to Vicksburg. The letters were filled with abuse of the "Yankees," curses of tbe 'cowardly conscripts,' tales of woe and starvation, and complaints of the insubordination of the negroes since tho Union army cau-.o into the State. Leaving Richmond, the advance moved toward the the Missississippi River, the inhabitants fleeing, leaving everything to the care of the "Yankees." On reaching a nnint !lfl miljia ftm f itKL-A..'

I An attempt was made bv the enemv. who are said to be two thousand strong, to drie the 69th from their present position. The writer sajs, "they came down near our breast-work at our out-post, with a considerable force and began shelling our position. We tried our liowitzer on them with considerable effect, killing one horse aod wouoding several men. As their guns were of longer range than our own, for a time it seemed doubtful whether we could hold our position, as they eould rem-in out of ride range snd shell us. A ruse was resorted lo boweter, p jy the day. The Col. ordered the men U fasten a long steam pipe, mar naa oeen Diown trom the Indianola, upon the hind wheels of an ox wagon, and ordered if fji ward to serve thc.jggrpose of a Parrot gnn. The boys hashed to the j front with it; turned it around into range, bearing upon them, and wi h an old stick witn a piece of cotton bound around the end of it, began to 'swab,' picparatry to loaaiDg tbe piece. As soon as the enemv brought their 6eld glasses to biar upon i',' they concluded it wat a monster gun, and' fled in great confusion. Had they advanced I in full lorce, our whole regiment might have Deen captured, as tbe retreat is entirely cat off by water. The bojs bad made up their minds to fight to the bitter end. and, as the only dry land in this region, at this time, is tne levee, and a few rods along its sides, the fight must have been desperate. Gen. Osterhans's whole dirision is bat a short distance in our rear. To day. Col. Bennett received tbe following general order from Gen. alcClernand: "I con gratulate yon upon your success iu expelling the enemy from Carthage, seizing that position, and pushing jour pickets atUl further down tbe river. You bare reached a point further South than any other land force marching from tbe interior towards tbe Gulf. Signed Jxo. A. UcCls&babd, Ataj Uea Coauaeadia- lth Aral Coras. Qr The importations of cotton into Kagland for the present year, have amounted to 310,000 bales against 200.000 for tba corresponding period ia 1862. The quantity afloat on its way to that country, waa estimated at 400,000 bales at tba latest dataa. On tbe whole tbe condition of the cotton manufacture is considered to have improved greatly during the year. 1
