The Tide of Battle Turned. The rebel advance towards Washington has been checked, their armies defeated and demoralized with immense loss in killed, wounded and prisoners taken. The Federal victorj is one of the most decisive and brilliant achieved during thtjWar. and it is to be hoped is but a precorsor to others that will speedily follow, and that our victorious eol nmns, may advance in triumph until Rich, inond and all the strong holds of treason are captured and the rebellion crushed the country again restored to peace and quiet. Thee brilliant victories will inspire our troops with fresh courage and revive the hopes and energies of the people, which it niusfbe confessed had began to droop under the series of disasters the Federal arms have sustained for a few months past not so much the lack of Generalship as some charge, as the intermediing of despicable, niercinary c roes road politicians, anxious the war should be t rolonged ns long as the Government could raise a dollar for them to steal. This brilliant achievement of McClellan will shut the mouths of the miserable abolition brawlers, who, like jackals, have yelped traitor and imbecile at his heels for months and heaped upon him every specie of vituperative villification and for what? because he did not issue a proclamation emancipating the negroes propose to perform feats in the
rear of the rebel armv when he could not cet w cy through the front Thank God negro worshipers and the negro are about played out the people are discovering that the former are the most dangerous enemies to the American Union and civil liberty on the face of the earth, and the latter of not of quite so much consequence as their worshipers have endeavoured to make
us believe. This war is for the purpose of maintaining the Constitution as it is and restoring the Union as it was, and the sooner traitors, North and South, become convinced of the fact and el?ar the track for the Union wagon, the better for them, as this is the demand of the only truly loyal men in the country they ask nothing more and will accept nothing less.

Wright and other "shoddy" patr"ots are endeavoring to cover up the astounding frauds perpetrated by the vandals now infesting every branch of the National Government by telling the people that an exposure of the thieves is opposing the Government that you must countenance and applaud rob bery and rascality, and such political montebanks as him in ord-r to be loval.

? The Politidinsat Work. ' Got. Morton and hiswhippers-in hare been busily engaged in the work of self aggraniuement A few days ago one of these inter--aedling committees, that have been so numerous and annoying during the past year, duly commissioned by Got. Morton waited upon the authorities at Washington and requested that Gov. Morton'be maJe an independent power by himself. The following notice from the Lafayette Courier will give the reader an insight into the object of the Committee. A PROrO'ITION FROM THE NORTHWEST. We violate no confidence in the staement that Hon Henrv S. Lane, Judge Test, Jesse L.
Williams, Hon. Dick Thompson, Cassius M.
i Clay, Garrett Davis and other representative
men ot the orth west, have been in ashingto for some days urging upon the President the acceptance of a proposition for the consolidation of the troops of the Northwestern States into one grand division under the command of Governor Morton. Thev pledge themselves in behalf of the creat No thwett to crush out the rebellin from the line ot Virginia southward in ninety days and leave New York, Pennsylvania ami the East the task of encountering Lee and his desperate legion. The proposition was well considered and fully matured before it was made. The decision uf the President thas not been rendered, but grave fears are entertained for the fate of the proposition. The telegraph dispatches to the associated press on the 12th cave the result cf the Committees labors. We quote: Se lator Lane and other prominent. Indian-
t lans who were hre a few days ago on a mis-
i Mon irom Gov. Morton, have returned with
No Tor an answer. Gev. Mortm desired authority to arm and uniform the regiments from his State, bj making requisitions directly, instead of through the General Government. :md to select the Generals to lead them This was modest, very, and had the request been granted, somebody no doubt would have made a right handsome little sum of money in furnishing the troops with shoddy clothes and inferior rations. Kut it appr ar Oliver the First of all the Hoo'iers was anx. ious to extend his realm. We quote from the Washington special to the Cincinnati Gazette, on the 11th. The Wester.: PELECvrtox. Stories are in circulation here that the recent delegation of Indiana and Kentucky politicians came
for the purpose of urging the appointment of
Gov. Morton as 1 rovisional Governor of Ken tuckv, and representing that the Union mem
bers of the Kentucky Legidature desired such an appointment This version is not believed, hot it is known that this delegation desired to secure an arrangement by which the State authority of Indiana could provide for their own troops, without waiting to go through the delay of the War Office, and could select their own Generals for them. , As the matter is understood here, this was coupled with expressions of dissatisfaction from both Kentuckians and India nians with some features of the present military management in that department It is authoritively denied thatthe Kentucky
Legislature requested any such thing, nor would the people of Kentucky have submitted to the indignity claiming that they have men quite as competent and loyal as Gov. Morton. On or about the same time an association of "shoddy patriots" in New York city, styling themselves the "National War Committee of New York" conceived the plan of organizing a corps of fifty thousand men at the Governments expense, but independent of its
control, to be placed under command of Gen. John Cattle Fremont. The following is the resolution and acceptance of Fremont : . , COrV RESOLUTION. Resolved, That General Fremont and Gen erul Mitehelbc requested, if the government will consent, to organize in this State, without delay, a corps of fifty thousand men, and that application for such consent be made to
the general government; and it it refuse, then the State government. New York, Sept 5, 1862. Sir: T have the honor to receive your note of the 3d inst., communicating to me a, resolution passed by the National War Committee of New York, in relation to a corps of fifty thousand men, and requesting to know, in the event of it having the sanction of the Government, if I would undertake its organization. I thank the Committee for the honor of their invitation, and beg you to inform them that I would undertake the proposed duty wity great pleasure. Respectfully, your obedient servant, J. C. FREMONT, Major General U. S Armv.
Hon. George Opdvke, Ac, Chairman of

Oth Congressional Dis'ct Convention. The Republicans of this District assembled
at Indianapolis on the 2nd of September, put in nomination Gen. Dcmost for Congress.
and passed a resolution that the proceedings
be published in the "Union'' papers of the District. Now we claim that the "Volunteer"
is a ''Union" paper it has combatted the fell heresy for years that the Constitution
was a covenant with death and the Union a league with hell and, for denouncing these principles and combattinz sectionalism we were derisively termed "Union Savers" by these same gentlemen who new so modestly arrogate to themselves all the patriotism and claim to be the only Union men extant But,
as we wore sayinz, a resolution oi tne Convention directed thatthe proceedings be published in the "Union" papers and in as mi h as there is no "shoddy" "Union" organ here, we have concluded, as an act of courte-
sey and good feeling towards our ering political opponents, to iive the proceedings of their caucus Convention an airing in the columns of a simon pure and unadulterated Union paper a paper that holds that the Union and the Constitution is paramount to all other terrestial things, the Chicago platform and the niggers not excepted. The Convention organized by calling D. S. Gooding of Hancock to the Chair and John S. Spann of Marion to act as Secretary. Wo now quo e from the published proceedings:
On a call of the counties, it was ascertained that delegates were in attendance from the counties of Marion, Hendricks, Hancock, Johnson, Morgan, and Shell. v ; and it being announced from the Chair that the nomination of a candidate for Congress was the business before the Convention, Joseph S. Miller, Esq , of Hendricks, moved that Gen. Ebenezer Dnmont be unani-

Our County Fair. The time for holding the Fair, lor this year, has been changed from the 23th, 24th. 2oth and 20th of September, as published in the Premium List of the Society, and will
now be held on the 7th, 8th. '.'th and 10th of
October. This change f-ccnicd to become
necessary, in as much nss the Union Fair, at Edinburgh, had been set lor the same time
with ours, and one or the other must give way to accommodate the public. And the
State Fair commencing on the ot'th inst,

urging mat the Uine has come when an if! tempt should be made to arrest the conflict that is being carried on. It deprecates any interference in Americm affairs, but pays surely the idea of friendly mediation may be entertained without any derogation-of the national dignity. The London Daily Jir
in nn arm- written article shows the falsity of the Times' predictions on American aff airs.. Considerable interest is being mani

of Garibaldi. The London Timts insists that he should not stanias a criminal before Italian Judgrg. The Democratic State Convention of New York have endorsed the nominations for State officers of the Constitutional Union Convention held a few days previous. Horatio Seymour is the candidate for Governor. The Uesolutions of the Convention, and the speech of Gov. Seymour on accepting the nomination are the sole of patriot
ismfree from the catch penny purility that invariably characterizes the "shod ly " emini

election is beyond question.

The rebels used our telegraph wire
in Virginia recent!- with even more signal success flian thev had in Kentucky, and with quite as much impudence. The moment Fitz Hugh Lee captured Manassas he telegraphed
in the name of General Pope's chief of staff to the proper officer in Washington, requesting him to send to the Junction a large sup ply of shelter ten's and harness forHrtillery horses. The order was promptly filled, and the rebels were soon gladdened by the appearance of a train loaded with what they wanted. Jackson, on his arrival, sent a message to the supirintenden of military railroads, coolly asking him to change the time tabic on the road for his accommodation.

They should be liberally patronized by every jjood citizen, not for the purpose of gain, but lor the public good.--Now. more than any other time, every one should take a deep interest in our Fair's, for the reason, that the country is in trouble, and these invaluable public institutions are likely to be neglected. Don't think of letting your Fair's, any more than your Schools, sink below the standard of civilization which the American people have marked out in their noble stand among the nations of the earth. Don't let the Southern rebels point to our broken down Agricultural Societies, as an evidence of our rapid decline, but come up
to this rair, one nnd all, and brin; all your article for exhibition, Hiid let those who would break down our institutions know, that we are strong enough to send a million of men to do glorious battle for the Union, and at the same time generously conduct uur home a flairs iifall their pristine glory. When the country called for men or money, Shelby county has never been found wanting, and now, after we have done so much, and done it so well, let us come together at the Old Fair Grounds, in all our might and strength, and show the world that we have scarcely felt the effects of this war that our
people are proud of what they have none, and remain able and willing to do as much more. Nothing would wound the prid of the Southern rebellion more, than to learn that after all their hard fighting, our people were living and doing, publicly as well as privately, just as they were wont to do before it become necessary to give Secessia a JlojSri''!t- ' .'V This Fair will be just the-fight time.

tht any lajor General shall organize a sen arate corps. EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. We have devoted this mu.'h of our limited space for the purpose ofshowing the ambitious
and revolutionary schemes of unscrupulous
men who are making pretensions of loyalty and devotion to the Union. These schemes of Morton and the "National War Committee" are fraught with more danger to the National Government and the people of the loyal States than the rebelion itself. Their object was to create an immense military power independent of the Government which would give tbem (Morton and Fremont and their satelites) the balance of power between the Federal and Confederate Government, and thus enable them to dictate terms to the former as to how the war should be prosecuted c. and in case their demands should not bo
complied with, overthrow the present GlH'-1 itte to your hands.
Encouraglng. The Washington, Pa,., Examiner says, there is something sublimely heroic in the calm faith with which Democrats look forward to the inevitable triumph of their principles. They know that their principles are eternal truth, and must, therefore, prevail. ,The Albany Argvs addresses these encouraging words to the Democracy of Xew York. They are as appropriate to us, of Iddiana: j Fellow-Democrats, haTe patience, stand fast by your principles, calmly endure tho flippant reproaches and misrepresentations witn which partisan demagogues, or it may be, honest but weak and unstah'e political friends, who assail you. When the storm of

pretensious patriots oi me uay snau nave shrunk away from the dangers which now impend over us, the last hope of the nation will rest upon our courage and firmness, grounded upon an intelligent political faith, which will be equal to the terrible ordeal, and the salvation of your country will be wrought out by your own hands." Cherish your political principles, preserve yor organisation, patiently struggle for the ri:ht. and prepare for the hour when the work of reestablishing the Constitution and restoring

The extra session of Congres in.July. l?fl, passed a law levying a tax of $o0,u00,000 on real estate.

The operation oftlielaw is supended 'for two years, when the tax is to be again Imied. But the tax now in operation, although indirect, falls as heavy upon the farmer ivs any other class, in the increased value of every article he buys the manufacturer adds the amount of the tax to the price of his products, the jobber and retailer add th-irtx in the way ot heavier profits, all of which,' have to be paid by the consumer.
